Serially Attached SCSI (SAS) Disk Enclosure
A SAS disk enclosure is a rackmounted enclosure that is a part of some NonStop NS16000 series
configurations. The SAS disk enclosure supports up to 25 SAS disk drives, 3Gbps or 6Gbps SAS
protocol, and a dual SAS domain from Storage CLIMs to dual port SAS disk drives. The SAS disk
enclosure supports connections to SAS disk drives. Connections to FCDMs are not supported. For
more information about the SAS disk enclosure, refer to the manual for your SAS disk enclosure
model (for example the HP StorageWorks 70 Modular Smart Array Enclosure Maintenance and
Service Guide).
